30;; Functions to look up references in bibliography files given lists of
31;; keywords, similar to refer(1). I don't use tags since tags on .bib files
32;; only picks up the cite key, where as refer-find-entry looks for occurrences
33;; of keywords anywhere in the bibliography entry.
34;;
35;; To use:
36;; (autoload 'refer-find-entry "refer" nil t)
37;; or (require 'refer)
38;;
39;; To look for an article by Knuth about semaphores:
40;; Invoke refer-find-entry, then in response to the Keywords: prompt,
41;; say: Knuth semaphores (a blank-separated list of keywords to be used
42;; as search strings).
43;;
44;; To continue the previous search, i.e., to search for the next occurrence
45;; of the keywords, use refer-find-next-entry, or invoke refer-find-entry
46;; with a prefix argument.
47;;
b8a3aefa
RS
48;; Once you've found the entry you want to reference, invoke
49;; refer-yank-key to insert it at point in the current buffer
50;; (typically as the argument of a \cite{} command).
51;;
52;; I use (define-key tex-mode-map "\C-c\C-y" 'refer-yank-key)
53;; to bind this often-used function to a key in (la)tex-mode.
54;;
ee6f7c13
RS
55;; If the list of bibliography files changes, reinitialize the variable
56;; refer-bib-files.
57;;
58;; To customize:
59;; See variables refer-bib-files, refer-cache-bib-files and
60;; refer-bib-files-regexp. By default, these are set up so that refer
61;; looks for the keywords you specify in all the .bib files in the current
62;; directory.
63;;
64;; The only assumption I make about bib files is that they contain a bunch
65;; of entries, one to a paragraph. refer-find-entry searches paragraph by
66;; paragraph, looking for a paragraph containing all the keywords
67;; specified. So you should be able to use pretty much any bib file with
68;; this code. If your bib file does not use paragraphs to separate
69;; entries, try setting the paragraph-start/separate variables, or changing
70;; the (forward-paragraph 1) call in refer-find-entry-in-file.
